How we rate online casinos
Online gambling brands in Ireland vary a lot. It can be hard to tell who is reliable. We rate casinos on clear, consistent criteria. Our aim is to help you find safe, fair, and enjoyable options quickly.
Ratings are designed to be transparent. We explain how we assess each site so you can understand the score and how it was decided.
Our review process
Our team conducts market research, tests features, and studies user feedback. We pull data from official licensing bodies, casino operators, and independent sources. Each brand is scored across a standard set of categories, then we publish an overall rating and the reasoning behind it.
We update ratings as information changes and strive to keep our content accurate and current.
Where relevant, we verify regulatory compliance and responsible gaming standards, including alignment with GRAI guidelines.
Key criteria we evaluate
- Licensing and regulation: real licenses from recognized authorities.
- Safety and fairness: secure platforms, RNG testing, and privacy protections.
- Payments and withdrawals: supported methods, processing times, and limits.
- Game variety and software quality: range of games and reliable providers.
- Bonuses and terms: fair offers with clear wagering requirements and restrictions.
- Customer support: accessibility, response times, and helpfulness.
- Responsible gaming: tools to set limits and access support.
- User experience: site design, mobile play, and speed.
Transparency and advertising
We may earn advertising fees from brands we review. This can affect placement in our comparison, but it does not override our independent analysis. Ratings are based on our criteria and data, not on payments from operators. For details, see our Terms of Service.
Why this matters
Clear, independent ratings help you compare options quickly. They also encourage brands to maintain high standards so players have a safe and enjoyable experience.
